Download All Things New: Heaven, Earth, and the Restoration of Everything You Love AudioBook Free
New York Times best-selling author John Eldredge offers listeners a amazing consider God's offer for a fresh heaven and a fresh Earth. This revolutionary booklet about our future is dependant on the simple idea that, based on the Bible, heaven is not our eternal home - the New Earth is. As Jesus says in the Gospel of Matthew, another chapter of the story starts with "the renewal of most things", by which he means the Earth we love in every its beauty, our own selves, and things that make for a abundant life: music, art work, food, laughter, and everything that we carry dear. Everything shall be renewed "when the world is made new". More than anything else, the method that you envision your future shapes your current experience. If you realized that God was going to restore your daily life and all you love any day, if you thought a great and glorious goodness was approaching for you - not in a hazy heaven but the following on this Earth - you'll have a desire to see you through anything, an anchor for your heart and soul, "an unbreakable spiritual lifeline, attaining past all performances right to the particular occurrence of God" (Hebrews 6:19). Most Christians (most people, for that matter) fail to look forward to their futures because their view of heaven is hazy, religious, and frankly boring. Hope starts when we recognize that for the believer little or nothing is lost. Heaven is not a life in the clouds; it isn't infinite harp strumming or worship singing. Rather, the life we miss, the paradise Adam and Eve realized, is exactly the life that is approaching to us. And this life is coming soon.
